Solved in 6 steps
- a) Suppose that the current one-year spot rate and expected one-year T-bill rates over the following three years (i.e., years 2, and 3 respectively) are as follows: 1R1 = 3.1%, E(201) = 4.20%, E(3r₁) = 6.6%. Using the unbiased expectation theory, calculate the current long-term rates for one- two and three-year-maturity Treasury securities and plot the current yield curve. Please show each step of your calculation. b) What are the sources of funding for commercial banks? Please also classify the sources of funding and briefly describe each category. c) The unbiased expectation theory and liquidity premium theory are two important theories to explain the shape of yield curve. Discuss and compare the two theories.3a) What is the forward rate? What is the relationship between forward rates and the spot rates? Provide the equation assuming annually compounded rates over two years.Suppose we observe the following rates: 1R1 = 10%, 1R2 = 12%. If the unbiased expectations theory of the term structure of interest rates holds, what is the 1-year interest rate expected one year from now, E(2r1)? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
